== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

  • When using my LG android phone to download Firefox I get a message stating "The requested item could not be found". And when I try to find it in the android market on my phone it does not come up in the search results.

    This occurs every time.

    Please check here to see whether Firefox is available for your phone:

  • I booted up this morning to find my voice over feature active. A black bar was at the lower left corner of my screen. When I began to click on the users in my login window it would not respond. All that I saw was the black bar saying authentication busy.

    I booted up this morning to find my voice over feature active. A black bar was at the lower left corner of my screen. When I began to click on the users in my login window it would not respond. All that I saw was the black bar saying authentication busy. I was not able to restart, I was not able to switch users, I was not able to shut down. I decided to manually shut down my Mac.  when it booted back up I was looking at the disk utility screen. When I clicked on repair or race it indicated that my hard drive had already been arranged. I was looking at completely formatted drive and I was having to either restore from Time Machine or reinstall lion. I had a back up but why did this happen?

    A possible workaround could be to have the horizontal scroll bar visible all the time.

  • When I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document.  When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers.  can't purchase or update?

    when I click on a saved document or spreadsheet, I get this message 'You need a newer version of Numbers to open this document'.  When I go Software update, there is no update for pages or numbers.  can't purchase or update?
    Trying re-purchasing.  won't let me.  says to check for updates?
    any suggestions

    It sounds to me as though you are attempting to open a Pages 09 document with the Pages 08 application. If you do have Pages 09 on your computer, it may be that for some reason an existing Pages 08 application is invoked accidentally.

  • When youtube is not my active tab, the video plays in the upper left corner of my screen.

    When I attempt to view a video on youtube, it takes several seconds to buffer. Leaving the video to run in the background I navigate to other tabs I have open and while the video buffers, nothing happens. When the video actually starts to play in the tab in the background, the video begins to play in the upper corner of my screen. The video does not to appear to be distorted at all, it's simply shifted from its location in the background tab to the upper left corner of my screen.

    Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

  • When I start up my computer, for a second, a small black icon pops up in the bottom left corner of my screen, and disappears again. What is it?

    It appears as soon as I've logged in, and sometime when finder starts up. I'm wondering if this is a common thing to happen, or some malicious software starting up.
    It appears to be square looking, but is only there for a second, so It's hard to see.

    Could simply be the cursor appearing briefly before the graphical user interface shows up. Is it on a black backdrop, or on the grey Apple backdrop with the spinning cogwheel?

  • When i try to set a folder, it does not show up on the far left which doesn't allow me to enter any projects in the folder..

    In trying to set up a folder, it doesn't appear on the far left but it shows up directly under other projects.  Because it doesn't set up on the far left I can't put any projects in the folder.

    Currently what I'm doing to set up a folder is go to "new" to create a folder but what I get is a folder that is directly positioned under a symbol such as a project and not out to the left of the other symbols.
    Probably you get a folder directly beneath a project, because you have selected that project. But still you should be able to drag the folder to a higher level so that you can move projects into it.
    If nothing else helps, switch to "Projects" View (by clicking on the prject icon on top of the Library Inspector) before you select "File -> New -> Folder" . That should create the new Folder at the bottom of your folder list, far to the left, and you should be able to drag projects to it.

  • When I click email links on firefox, it won't open my AOL email client to continue, I get "The file may not be supported by AOL, AOL will try to open it as a text file if you choose to continue" how to fix?

    When I click email links on firefox, it opens AOL, but comes up like this.. "The file may not be supported by AOL, AOL will try to open it as a text file if you choose to continue" how to fix? and yeah, I know, ditch AOL and all that good stuff, but I have so many things tied into my email address that it's not in the cards atm..
    Thanks!

    That file might have moved to a different location on the server. I think you'll need to check with RefWorks support or your local IT department on why the install page links do not work.

  • Does Resetting Internet Explorer Maintenance settings from GPO will also remove the proxy set in IE by a third party tool when the GPO refreshes for the first time

    Hi,
    We have two GPO's with IE maintenance (Preference Mode Configured)
    The settings it has are
    1. Automatically detect configuration settings - Set to Enabled.
    2. Automatic Browser configuration - Not configured.
    We do not have proxy value set in IE through this GPO.
    We have proxy set in IE through a third party tool (TPT) which updates the proxy at logon event 5 and 10.
    Does Resetting Internet Explorer Maintenance settings from these GPO's also clear proxy set in IE by third party tool after the first GPO refresh. 
    I am sure the second time when the GP refreshes, the client won't find any IEM settings and hence there is no question of the proxy set in IE by TPT to erase. It is only the first time of the GPO refresh that I am concerned about.
    Can someone please guide as I am planning to do the same in our production and concerned about the downtime caused due to the proxy being removed if at all for the first time.

    It will disable the proxy server option in Internet Options (untick the box), but will still store your proxy details.
    Thanks
    Ryan

  • Why, when I click on an email link in Firefox 4, GMail hijacks my browser instead of opening Thunderbird??

    Suddenly, anytime I click on an email link in Firefox 4, Gmail opens a popup window. This does not happen if I click an email link in IE 8.0 or Google Chrome. In Tools > Options > Applications, Thunderbird is set as my default in Firefox 4. If I go to Start > Control Panel > Internet Options, Thunderbird is the default email client as well. Clearing cookies and settings did not resolve this problem. What is going on?

    I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

  • When I click on a email link my default outlook doesn't open. Instead gmail keeps opening. I have outlook checked as default already

    When I click on a email link my default outlook doesn't open. Instead gmail keeps opening. I have outlook checked as default already

    There are 2 settings to check for email programs, one is the Windows default email program which you probably already have set to Outlook. The other is a Firefox setting that determines how it handles mailto links. The second one may be set to Gmail. For details see [[Changing the e-mail program used by Firefox]]

  • How do I change from my old email provider to the new one so when i click on a web link I dont get the old proviser which I no long have?

    Often webpages contain links to someone who can be contacted just by clicking on the contained link and then one's email service pops up with the required email address etc filled in. However i have recently change service provider and I still get the old provider showing which I no longer have, when I click on such website links. How do I get the new provider to show?

    For Firefox you would generally have Use system default if on your system , or choose a web based system such as GMmail
    :T00ls > Options > Applications > mailto: (drop down has choices)
    Windows OS
    :Control Panel > Default Programs > choose program if on your system or Firefox if web based email

  • When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

    When I click on an active link from another application, it opens the firefox application, but won't open open the page - it just opens Firefox or takes me to Firefox. No new tab or window is opened and the link is not displayed.

    Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.
